Amazon's New Original Series Could Give Netflix A Run For Its Money

Netflix may have had a big head start in streaming original series, but Amazon is quickly closing the gap.

Jason Lynch, television writer for Quartz, talked with the director of Amazon Studios about his strategy, measuring success and competing with Netflix.

Both networks work under the impression that people like binge watching, so they release an entire series at once. However, Netflix has been ahead of the game thus far with critics. Lynch explains how Amazon's original series are getting better feedback than expected, especially their new show "Transparent."
